<p>SECTION 9 CRITICAL READING.
Numbers 15, 16, 17, 19, explained please. </p>
<p>Thanks, I just finished the section except I don’t know why I’m wrong and don’t know how I understand the right answer.</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Correct answer is C. My reasoning is that in the previous lines to 45, it says that the basic “tenet” or belief of psychological realism is “that characters live inside of you and that you create a lifelike portrayal of the character through a process of realizing your own similarity to the character.” This belief must rest on the assumption that actors have already felt the full range of human emotions. Otherwise, they would not be able to create a lifelike portrayal of the character. </p></li>
<li><p>Correct answer is D. The lines states “most characters spoke somewhere inside the rhythmic ranges of students.” Rhythmic range most nearly means the extent of the student’s knowledge and ability. Thus, characterizations were confined to the ranges of the students or what they knew- Choice (D)</p></li>
<li><p>E. In the next paragraph, the author states “I needed evidence that you could find a character’s psychological reality” which is the same as the author finding the psychological truth.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>19.E The “metaphors” are said to come from an actor’s real life. Choice E is the only one that fulfills that role. Personal comparisons means comparing the actor’s character to that of the portrayal.</p>
